Tattoo'd Lady - Rory Gallagher


Em             C            D                 Em
 Tattoo'd Lady, bearded baby they're my family
When I was lonely something told me where I could always be

etc.

       A7                      E                         C#m    B    E
Well I spent my youth under canvas roof as I roamed from town to town
A7                         E
I'm not fooling when I say I got no schoolin'
C#m                      B
Never like the classbell sound
A                        C#m
From inside the caravan    I hear the fairground band
G#m                        B
 Sounding good as they can be
A                        C#m
You know I can't be found   But if you look around
G#m                        B7
 Tomorrow we'll be gone by dawn

solo

Now hear it on the loud speaker say
 the fire eater is a real fine sight to see
You know he's a death cheater, some kind of central heater,
 be shure to save a seat for me
Let me tell you 'bout wicked Sadie, she's no baby,
 the law came and tried to close her sideshow down
But soon she had the D.A. cheering
 the police chief wearing her garter for a crown

reffr.
